Now there are no monks in the Great Buddhist Temple, which is a museum, but it does not affect the visit, you can also explain. The Hall of the Ninth Five-Year Respect looks very old, but according to the staff, it is actually maintained, except that it has not been painted, and it is considered as old as it is. The Great Buddha Cultural Revolution in the temple was also destroyed, so it was repaired. Fortunately, it was not serious. However, many cultural relics stored in the temple were lost, which was a pity. There are many cultural relics related to the Great Buddha Temple in the exhibition hall behind the main hall. You can also see the internal structure model of the Great Buddha and understand the way of storage. The most precious is of course the first printed Bei Zang Jing. There is also the nun who has the merit of protecting the scriptures, whose merits and virtues are immeasurable. Personally, I think it is very worth seeing, so it is also listed as a must-see stop in Zhangye, not from the perspective of incense burning in temples, but from the perspective of rare relics of the Xixia Dynasty.

    Mainly to see the first bedroom Buddha and Xixia characteristic buildings in the country, it is worth a visit. The scenic area is very clean, well managed, very comfortable to play, the scenic area is not large, there are historical and cultural exhibitions inside, all carefully read, two hours is enough. Very good travel experience.

    The architecture, carvings, murals, and carvings of the Big Buddha Temple are worth seeing for a long time. I took a lot of details and studied it slowly. It's a pity that I can't see ancient books and other cultural relics. It's a pity that the mountain is far away.

    It belongs to the landmark attraction of Zhangye City. It is a good place to understand Zhangye's history. It has a typical palace architectural style and is a thousand-year-old temple. The temple complex runs through the central axis of the east and west direction. The left and right halls are arranged symmetrically, and the whole group of buildings is unique.
